NASA recently made an incredible discovery on meteorites that are billions of years old, sugars essential to life.
Proceedings of the National Academy of SciencesMeteorites, which often are derived from asteroids bombarded early Earth, leading researchers to question whether these meteorites introduced the first sugars to Earth and thus an essential life-forming ingredient.
Ribose is an especially interesting and exciting find as it is a core ingredient of RNA , a building block of life on Earth. RNA acts as the messenger taking instructions from the DNA and implementing them by building necessary proteins. The discovery of Ribose in meteorites adds to the discovery of amino acids and nucleobases. These combined provide the ingredients to develop life, suggesting that all the ingredients for life could have been brought extraterrestrially.
